I have a funny feeling it's the Wii U ribbon cable that might be screwed up. I ordered another pair on Amazon yesterday so I should have it tomorrow. So the issue seems to be the left inputs ( D pad and left shoulder buttons) When they do work (it seems to go in and out of working when I move the teensy and connector around. Not sure which it is. But the right side input always work. So I think it has to do with the ribbon cable. Or at least I'm hoping it is it.codeman0624 wrote:IrieMars wrote:I am seriously considering throwing in the towel here. I have everything working, except for the left inputs (up and down) I moved the wires around and they changed from up down not working to LT and down not working. I can't for the frigging life of me figure out why? I think its some bad wiring but I just can't isolate the issue.
Anyways, anyone wanna buy this thing off me and give it a shot? Lol.
Don't give up! I'm working on a build of my own, and it's great to be able to glean advice and tips from everyone else working on one! It's fun for us all to follow along.
I'm not understanding what's not working? The directional pad, or the joystick is mixed up? Is LT the left tactile switch under the joystick?
So basically, I go to set up the buttons. I can get all the buttons except two to work. And I notice the left inputs require some jiggling of the Teensy and connector board. However, there is not issue no matter the position or how much a jiggle with the analogs or the right buttons. So I came to the conclusion that it might be the ribbon cables. I also swapped the connector boards on the right (that work perfectly) with that on the left (which don't work perfectly). And I get the same inconsistent response. So now I just wait and pray it's the ribbon cable.
